Hi Cathy.
Openbook may have a few bells and whistles that Text Cloner does not have, but it reads typed text quite well using your own screen reading program which is what I want. I highly recommend the trial version which is free and is the full version. It meets my needs quite nicely.

Becky,

Does this program do everything that openbook does?

Hello.
Before you decide on a scanning program, check out
http://www.readingmadeez.com/products/TextClonerPro.html
I've been using it for several years.  It does the job quite nicely for me
and at a fraction of the cost of other programs. Cost is $99.95 and you can

download a trial version to check out.

Hello everyone.

Finally got a scanner for the first time in years. Just wondering if
anyone uses standard commercial OCR software (iE, not kurzweil or
OpenBook) and which ones you feel most comfortable with? I may shell out
for Open Book, but I'm not the only one using this computer, and it'd be
nice if I could just acquire a standard OCR package. I remember someone
telling me years ago that something they were using worked well with JAWS
and possibly other screenreaders as well...may have been FineReader, but I

can't honestly remember. So, any experiences to share?

JM
